Best Answer

An organization that is established as a not-for-profit (or NFP), whether qualified as a tax exempt one or not (many aren't tax exempt - like political action committees), does not have owners in the conventional sense.

While the organization may in fact make money in any number of ways, on investments, business ventures, donations, etc., and pay salaries and other expenses as needed, all of it's 'earnings" are employed (or spent) to further the NFP goals. No dividends are paid and the stock is not traded. Owners, (again a hard term to use), do not get anything.

If they did, then by definition, it wouldn't be a not for profit!
